Kia EV9 brings a new level of luxury with its 561 KM range, AWD, dual sunroofs, and Level 2 ADAS. Learn about its features, specs, and price details for India.

Upcoming Kia EV9 Electric SUV: Specs, Features, and Range Details

Kia is all set to launch its flagship electric SUV, the Kia EV9, in India. After the success of the EV6, the EV9 will be introduced via the CBU (Completely Built Unit) route. The India-spec EV9 will feature a range-topping CT-Line AWD trim to meet the aspirations of Indian consumers. The launch is scheduled for October 3rd, 2024.

Exterior Styling and Features

The Kia EV9’s bold, muscular design gives it a commanding road presence. With dimensions of 5,015 mm in length, 1,980 mm in width, and 1,780 mm in height, the EV9 is a substantial SUV. Its 3,100 mm wheelbase adds to its imposing stature on the road.

Key exterior highlights include:

  • Ice Cube LED projector headlamps
  • Starmap LED DRLs
  • Digital pattern lighting grille
  • 20-inch crystal-cut alloy wheels
  • Glossy black ORVMs and roof rails
  • Automatic flush door handles in body color
  • Rain-sensing wipers, rear spoiler, and hidden rear wiper

The use of glossy black accents on the wheel arches, door garnishes, and beltline further enhances its premium look. Additionally, sporty gunmetal skid plates and starmap LED rear combination lamps add to the stylish rear profile.

Kia EV9 Interiors

The interior of the Kia EV9 is designed for luxury and indulgence. Featuring dual-tone leatherette seats, a leatherette steering wheel with an illuminated emblem, and suede headlining, the EV9 ensures a premium experience.

Additional highlights include:

  • 64-color ambient mood lighting
  • Metal scuff plates and sporty alloy pedals
  • Dual sunroofs and paddle shifters
  • Power-adjustable driver and front passenger seats
  • 2nd-row power adjustable seats with a massage function
  • Heating and ventilation for both front and 2nd-row seats

In terms of tech, the EV9 is equipped with:

  • Dual 12.3-inch screens and a 5-inch HD HVAC control unit
  • Meridian premium sound system with 14 speakers
  • Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
  • Over 100 connectivity features via Kia Connect
  • Head-up display, OTA updates, and wireless charging

Kia EV9 Safety Features

The Kia EV9 comes equipped with more than 20 Level 2 ADAS features, including:

  • Blind view monitor and 360-degree camera
  • Forward collision avoidance assist and lane keep assist
  • 10 airbags and electronic stability control
  • All-wheel disc brakes and multi-collision brake
  • Front, side, and rear parking sensors

These advanced safety features ensure that the EV9 is one of the safest electric SUVs on the road.

Kia EV9 Performance, Range, and Price

The India-spec Kia EV9 will be powered by a 99.8 kWh battery pack, offering a range of 561 km (ARAI MIDC). The SUV will come in an AWD format with two electric motors delivering  combined output of 384 hp and 700 Nm of torque. The EV9 can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.3 seconds.

Charging is made convenient with fast charging capabilities—10% to 80% in just 24 minutes using a DC fast charger.

Expected Price and Competition

Kia EV9 is expected to be priced at around ₹1 crore in India. While there are no direct rivals at launch, it will likely compete with luxury electric SUVs like the BMW iX, Mercedes EQE SUV, and Audi Q8 e-tron.

Conclusion

The Kia EV9 is set to redefine the luxury electric SUV market in India, offering a perfect blend of style, performance, and technology. With its 561 km range, AWD capabilities, and Level 2 ADAS features, it will be a strong contender in the premium electric SUV segment.
